Coney Island man convicted for the murder of his 16-month-old baby
A Brooklyn judge convicted a Coney Island father for brutally beating his infant daughter to death during a visit on Father’s Day.
Little Nylah Lewis was dropped off by her mother to Shaquan Taylor’s West 32nd Street apartment on June 18, 2017. A short while later, Taylor texted Nylah’s mother that the baby was having trouble breathing.
Prosecutors said that when the mother arrived at the apartment, their daughter was unconscious with bruises, cuts and swelling on her face.
